SABEW to hold training call on covering gas prices

May 3, 2011

The Society of American Business Editors and Writers will hold a conference call later this month what is shaping up to be the business story of the summer: rising gasoline prices.

The call will offer access to the experts who are tracking gas prices and their impact on consumers, the economy and local communities. You’ll also get tips from energy journalists about how to cover and localize this important story.

The call will be held Monday, May 23, at 3 p.m. EST.

The moderator will be Chris Kahn, energy writer for the Associated Press. He will be joined by three panelists:
James Coan, research associate for the Energy Forum at the James A. Baker III Institute for Public Policy at Rice University; Neil Gamson, Energy Information Administration; and Russell Gold, energy writer in The Wall Street Journal’s Houston bureau.

Please RSVP for the event by registering here. Then, on the day of the event, please call (218) 339-2626 and, when prompted, enter the access code 4058935. You’ll be able to hear the panelists but not speak to them.

During the call, listeners may send questions via e-mail to sabew@sabew.org. Selected questions will be forwarded to the moderator for the panel to answer.
